Hi, I have been playing chess on this site for years now and I know that the community of players here is mostly nice and welcomming. There are few, thought, that are really abusive. I think I already tried to report one such a player, who was abusive in chat after he lost a game to me, but I was told I should just "mute" that player and not care about him anymore. Today I met another one of those:
When I made a winning move, the chat went like this:
XXXX: fk off pedo
MatejV: sure
XXXXrs: yellow bstard
MatejV: ur funny :)
XXXXXXs: gfy
MatejV: sending this conversation to mods here
GAME OVER - MatejV vs. XXXXs - MatejV won on time (+7). Your new blitz rating is 1313.

XXXX may have violated our Fair Play policy - it has been noted and they may have their account restricted.
MatejV: Hopefully you will get banned. Have a nice day.
Thats it. We played 5 min game and I would win a Q on that move at min 2 or so... he then didnt play for 3 mins and lost on time. Anyhow. These people are RARE, but I would really appreciate, if they could be reported somewhere and banned from this site temporarily and if that wouldnt help, then permanently. It is really noticeworthy, that quite a few of those abusive people have diamond signalising their premium membership. As if they thought they own this site now... how sad... :(.
Anyhow. Any thoughts on this topic? Would you also welcome a "report player" button somewhere?
Thanks.
There is a button for reporting players. If you looked at Help, you would have found it.
My opponent said some very abusive and rude things. What should I do?
Please report the abuse here! Abusive language will result in that player being warned or banned depending on the severity.
// You are not supposed to name their names in the forums. You should delete the name in your post. (That in itself is a violation.)
Just use the contact form. If you report it, that guy will probably be banned for a while.
